Common Questions

Do stone candle holders stain from wax?
Wax can leave a faint mark if left to soak in. To clean: let the wax fully harden, then flick out with a butter knife. For residue, gently warm the spot with a hairdryer and wipe with kitchen roll. The sealant we apply makes most wax cleanups simple.
Can I use them outdoors?
Some are weather-resistant, some are not — check the product page. Travertine and limestone can stain when wet for extended periods, so for outdoor use we recommend the indoor/outdoor-rated pieces only, and bringing them inside during heavy rain.
Are they safe for taper candles?
Yes. All taper-candle holders are designed with a sized cup that holds a standard 22mm taper candle. We recommend snuffing rather than blowing candles out to prevent wax splatter onto the stone surface.
Will the stone discolour over time?
Natural stone develops a soft patina over years of use — not discolouration so much as a subtle deepening of tone where it has been handled. Many people consider this part of the appeal. Bright sunlight can fade some stones slightly, so avoid placing them in direct south-facing windows for hours each day.
What weight should a stone candle holder be?
Heavy enough to feel stable in the hand. Our stone candle holders weigh 0.5-2kg depending on size. Lighter than this and they tip; heavier and they are unwieldy. Hill our spec sheet on each product page.
About stone candle holders uk

Why stone

A stone candle holder is one of the most quietly luxurious objects in a Scandi home. Heavy in the hand, naturally veined, and weathering slowly with use, stone reads as permanent in a way light metal or glass never quite does. Pair a single tall stone taper holder with a 25cm dinner candle and you have one of the simplest, most considered table moments possible.

Where they belong

Down the centre of a dining table at a slow dinner. On a bedside surface as the last light before sleep. On a fireplace surround, even unlit during the day. On a bathroom shelf as part of a small ritual moment.

Care

Drip wax cleans off easily once cooled — chip with a soft cloth or warm to room temperature and wipe. Avoid acidic cleaners on natural stone.
